Most people hate Isopure and call it Isopuke.

Omg Isopure is so disgusting. I can't even choke it down. I bought a container of the vanilla and today I went out and bought stuff to add to it cuz its just that bad. Body fortress is pretty good. I got the chocolate Peanut Butter. You can get it at Walmart and is way cheaper than isopure

I like the grape and alpine punch quite a bit, but who knows if I will after sx.

They are talking about the powder. The clear stuff is very drinkable. It's sort of like Gatorade. It does have an aftertaste at first, but mild and you get used to it. It's worth it. i haven't met many on here that manage to get in all their Protein during the first couple weeks. I did and I think it made a huge difference. Also the are 24 oz each right. That's almost all your Fluid intake too.

Towards the end of the second week you will be sick to death of them, but as the guy at the GNC store said: "You gotta do what you gotta do."

The Alpine punch and grape are the only two flavors I like. I've tried the rest and barely finished the bottles.< /p>

I buy the neon blue drink... It is a life saver, but to be honest I ice mine down and put a little bit of Water. I bottle usually last me about 2 days. Hope this helps

Try mixing it with crystal light, or one of those Vitamin waters. They taste way better if they are not straight out of the bottle.

Ooh! I never thought of that! Crystal light seems to save the day a lot lately! :)

I can't use the powders (no matter what they are mixed with) post-op. The milky RTD drinks also make me physically ill. The Isopure Zero Carb is the only non food Protein source that my sleeve tolerates. Is it yummy? Hell to the no! Does it help me get closer to my healthy me goal? YES! Clean protein + zero carbs + liquid EQUALS success!

I gagged when I tried to drink the Isopure Clears after surgery. I bought a case that was 50.00 and drank 1. The rest are sitting in the cabinet! :(

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
